Yeah, but some people need to take polygraphs and swear they don’t do little things like pirate media or smoke pot. I’m not even kidding. The stupidest little thing will be made a big deal of. It’s easier to mostly follow the rules. Mostly.
You know, your comment was very helpful.
I know that all of these megacorps sponsor all sorts of philanthropic causes for PR and tax purposes. But I also know how evil Nestle is and I don’t find it difficult to not buy their products. …until I just looked up who’s paying for my meds.
But thank you, you are right. I’m using up their money and giving them nothing back.
More cognitive impairments equals more human, right?
I kind of hate dad jokes, but you got me there.
The sheer, unmitigated corruption and violence that comes from police departments and courts (especially looking at you, “Supreme” Court) is utterly disheartening. I sincerely do not see a way forward without violence, and I am not a proponent of violence. But things have gotten so bad, the people have so few protections and so few people in power on their side. What are you supposed to do when voting doesn’t matter because of corruption, gerrymandering, voter intimidation, disenfranchisement?
Where do we go from here when there is no one with power or in the mainstream political sphere who is even trying to correct it?
Yes, we have Bernie and AOC, but two people can’t do a thing.
I’m guessing you haven’t heard of Killology. They are literally trained to see the populace as dangerous enemy combatants, and they have fewer rules of engagement than soldiers do abroad. So they shoot whoever and whatever the fuck they want, and get away with it.
I’m not so sure of your solution, but as an Mbinner…
Sure would be great if the farmers would stop giving all their livestock antibiotics, causing a big part of this problem to begin with.
I can confirm this. I’ve got family in the restaurant industry and we’ve been keeping an eye on advances in restaurant related robotry for ages. We knew this was coming looong ago. Like, a decade ago. It just wasn’t quite there yet.
I thought Qdoba went out of business ages ago.
Same as Trump.
The really special part is that Jassy is saying that he wants it to go back to like it was “pre-pandemic”. Well, as a techie in Seattle, I can assure you that his new policy is much stricter than it was pre-pandemic. Being able to work from home was pretty lax back in the day, and they weren’t tracking your badge-ins.
Very disingenuous. It’s all about the shareholders, real estate investment, and pressure from city and business interests to get wallets back downtown at lunch time.
I’ve got a set of microscopes I could lend you.
I’m not sure how many of the youngins remember that use of the word ‘radical’.
Her family should sue the state of Georgia.
Any number of non-white immigrants, that is.
Oh no, I just looked it up and learned that I get my multi-thousand dollar per month medication for free thanks to a program sponsored by Nestle. I feel dirty. But I also need my medication.
Not for some of us.
Maybe they’re just not common in the places I frequent. Can’t remember the last time I’ve seen one, but that doesn’t mean they’re not around somewhere.
